character building, plot development, visual aids, and emphasis on the theme and lesson of
the story.

can provide time within the class for this preparation).
Plan several sessions so that each student has a turn to tell their story in a relaxed way.
Gather the students in a circle to listen to each scheduled story, and ask them to quietly
listen to each story as it is told.
Allow time for the students to comment and to explore the theme/lesson of the story. .
